Denver Rental License Inspections
“Healthy Residential Rentals for All”
Denver’s new Residential Rental License Policy has passed city council. While this is a big change for the city, it joins over 60% of the country by having some type of rental licensing program.
The main goal of the program is to ensure that renters are living in safe and healthy homes in an environment where rental rates have substantially outpaced incomes.
Ever since the rental program began, we have been at the forefront, providing the required rental license inspections. Our company has been providing rental license inspections in the city of Boulder for the last 10+ years, which gives us the experience needed to offer an efficient and scalable Denver Rental License Inspection service.
At Scott Rental Inspections, a division of Scott Home Services, LLC, we are offering inspections now and have 6 certified inspectors! Call or schedule today.
TIMELINE:
Phase 1: Jan 1, 2022
Early & voluntary licensing started. Any rental was able to get a rental license in this period.
Phase 2: Jan 1, 2023
Licenses became required for anyone who offers, provides, or operates a rental property of 2 or more units on a parcel. Any multi-family home.
Phase 3: Jan 1, 2024
Licensing became required on all single family homes that are offered as rentals. Any building that has a single rental unit on a parcel is included.

How To Pass A Denver Rental License Inspection
Denver Rental License requirements have a list of minimum housing standards that a unit must maintain in order to pass the inspection. While most of the items on this list are pretty standard, there are a few small details that may trip you up. We wrote an article on how to pass your inspection. Read more below.
